Cerebral oxygenation monitoring has emerged as a crucial component in cardiac surgery, offering a non‐invasive, continuous assessment of brain oxygenation that is vital for optimising surgical ...

Preoperative cerebral oxygen saturation could accurately assess risk for adverse outcome in cardiac surgery patients, according to a study published in the Jan. 2011 issue of Anesthesiology.

The brain consumes approximately 25% of the body's oxygen to fuel its neural activities, underscoring the importance of sufficient oxygen supply for maintaining normal cognitive operations.

In mice we observed the occurrence of spatial and temporal defined local sinks in the brain tissue oxygen levels, a phenomenon we termed “hypoxic pockets”. Those hypoxic pockets lasted on average 50 ...

Researchers at the University of Rochester and at the University of Copenhagen have developed a bioluminescence imaging technique that creates highly detailed, and visually striking, images of the ...

A new study shows oxygenation levels in the placenta, formed during the last three months of fetal development, are an important predictor of cortical growth (development of the outermost layer of the ...

Your brain consumes about 20% of your body’s total oxygen supply, making it incredibly dependent on efficient breathing patterns for optimal function. Most people never think about how they breathe, ...

An injectable emulsion containing two omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oil markedly reduced brain damage in newborn rodents after a disruption in the flow of oxygen to the brain near birth, a study ...

Luminescent protein, substrate, and oxygen all combine to create chemical chain reaction to produce light. Video shows the cortex of a mouse recorded over several minutes as the oxygen concentration ...
